I have a limesat HD air unit that often gave me the hello boot loop message once rebooted.
I decided to replace the power switch and power wire with one from an old viewsat ultra I had laying around and that seemed to have fixed the problem for me. I ran the unit for several days without powering off so it can run hot then powered off and on several times and now I don't get the boot loop anymore so if your unit gives you the boot loop try replacing the rear switch and maybe the power wire from another unit and see if that fixes the problem.

Is this a known problem? Does it happen often? Just wondering because I was interested in this unit because of the positive feedback I have seen on it.

this is correct it as to do with the hard reset switch on the back of the unit
change the switch and it will fix the hello boot loop
look like the switch is really cheap or something ....

It is still work with the hello boot loop. I wouldn't worry about that. If it really bother you, then replace it.

Guide for BOOT LOOP fix
C?P from Webwizard...................1) Start the loader and set the com port.
2) Select file to you want to load.
3) While holding in the front panel power button reboot box and hold power
button on box in for at least 5 seconds while rebooting.
4) boot should freeze in display.
5) Press start on loader and file should begin transfer. When countdown is less
than 4 digits numbers are prefixed by letter A will appear.
6) When the display hits zero it should change to -E5-.
7) WAIT !!!! The Display on loader should be at 90% at this point.
8) The receiver should then start counting down prefixed with a "P". I assume
that is for 'PROGRAMMING'.
9) When the receiver displays -End- wait a few seconds, look at loader program
which should now be complete, and then reboot box.

I have tested this method on 4 receivers and it works well.....
